Tobal No. 1 (PS1 / 1996) - Epon [Tournament Mode: Playthrough] [Hard]

[@MicBain]

Most underrated fighter on the ps1. Absolutely loved this game.

FACTS

[@bibicmoi2697]

Such a gem of a fighting game series, it felt so sick and fast.

[@MuppetMan246]

The Tobal games were pretty solid fighters. I'm kinda surprised you don't really hear about the series amongst the pros in the FGC.

[@justrok79]

No modern console ports. No arcade release. No online unless you play via emulation and parsec...possibly. There was never really a competitive scene. Ehrgeiz has more of a scene for it than this game. Difference is Ehrgeiz got an arcade release The Era this game came out of was primed for arcades. I always found it odd this game never got an arcade release. It might have been more noteworthy otherwise.

[@ShaneDouglas713]

​​@@justrok79 Pretty much

[@Pridetoons]

I wish Tobal 1&2 would get a remaster.

[@bibicmoi2697]

I'd add bloody roar to this list but a return of tobal would be damn great.

[@picvajzpikcers]

All mentioned plus Ehrgeiz and Bushido Blade

[@Pridetoons]

@@bibicmoi2697 If they bring Bloody Roar back I want them to bring Hans Taubemann back too.

[@ShaneDouglas713]

Same

[@ShaneDouglas713]

​@@bibicmoi2697agreed

[@caioluccas3375]

The opening of Tobal 2 brings me such good memories

[@hieioni3354]

Epon. Add an "a" after and we get the name of the horse from the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time :D

[@leocampo2755]

[@chengfu7063]

Excellent classic greatness don't stop man 👊 excellent era excellent time to enjoy life another excellent playthrough well done

[@FireBomberBassist]

I used to rent this all the time as a kid. 👌

[@picvajzpikcers]

I played No.2 religiously, never tried the first one, maybe I should

[@picvajzpikcers]

Tried it and its good! However, it misses the ingeniously deep grappling system of No2.

[@KindredEmotions]

Tobal No. 1 made me go out of my way to get my hands on Tobal 2 and a converter to play it on my PSX. Such a great game that sold in the US for the wrong reasons (FF7 demo disk).

[@jakesaysknee]

This may be the first time I ever saw Nork ring out 😯

[@SNKev411]

This game, and the second have the nicest graphics on the PlayStation

[@quixodeath8879]

i used to love this game

[@KombatGod]

As much as I love Akira Toriyama you gotta admit he's not a real imaginative character designer... I mean he knows how to draw 2 types of male faces, 2 types of female faces, 5 types of clothes, and 1 type of shoes! I mean the main character in this game (Chuji) is almost exactly just Gotenks!

[@wm4993]

out of all the old, obscure fighing games you’ve played which would be the best « playing » ones in your opinion?

[@Lukas-kz4xm]

Umm, with a console game looking like this in 96 it's no wonder the other 32/64-Bit offerings called it quits that same year.

[@drerogros3526]

A intro do Tobal no 2 é muito melhor
